This is the kind of response seen in the article - "just accept it, it's biology" or "get over it, it's normal." Humans are thinking, emotional beings and though our needs for food, water, shelter, and contact are necessary, we are more than able to control or suppress other biological urges. Why is this one so different that everyone MUST accept it?

Nobody's asking you to accept it. I'm merely saying that it's normal for a male of the species to not be tied down to one female on a purely biological level. Social level? Not so much. At least not in most modern cultures. You have a strong opinion against it? Awesome! I have one too.
Point is, if the woman I'm dating has a problem with me watching porn, it's...well...her problem. I wouldn't stop doing it because of that hang up. I'm 100% against cheating however. In case you were curious.
